its always quiet in the beginning give about 2 or 3 weeks and it will get louder how much dont know

It looks really good. I like the bronze color on the wheels. I might do the same thing and I hope to get that muffler too.

Even the Race Series muffler is quite quiet on the 3.0V6. This should be even quieter.

Nice, you just got the universal muffler?

**beam514** · 08-03-2009, 03:33 PM

yeap. Ordered it on ebay for about $130, then paid $60 for it to be welded on. and yea, its surprisingly quiet from inside the car. I drove my friend around and he didn't even realize I had a new muffler on there. Same with my dad actually. The only reason he noticed was because of the 4" tip and the shiny chrome, of course.

^yeah i've noticed my magnaflow is really quiet (albeit i have the i4 and the race series)

btw that looks pretty dope, do you have c/o's yet?

**beam514** · 08-03-2009, 05:42 PM

thanks, but nope on the coilovers. I kind of wish I saved up for them simply just to go a little lower, but handling wise, this set up is just fine.

blue8g · 08-03-2009, 05:50 PM

^what are you on?

**stvn_mj** · 08-03-2009, 06:27 PM

^rear agx and progress springs and front stock progress springs.

thanks guys!

steven, sorry I haven't posted pictures of the muffler fitment yet. I've been SUPER busy the past few days and I still need to go out and snap some pics

Bring350GT, were you on MP? your car looks really familiar

and I plan on putting on the front AGX's tomorrow morning. Finally found some time to do them

**stvn_mj** · 08-07-2009, 03:59 PM

No problem bro. Anyway I will most likely go that route anyway.I bet the galant will look and feel better with those agx up front.
